How to modernize workplace learning

So what can you do to bring workplace more in line with modern day personal, independent learning? There are four main ways:

Do the same things but differently – update your existing approaches to face-to-face training and e-learning

Create new things – like new types of resources for on demand access - and use a learning centre/portal to host them

Support social workplace learning – help to run and maintain communities of practice, build social teams to help them work and learn together, coordinate peer-to-peer learning activities - and underpin these activities in the new enterprise social and collaboration intranets and platforms

Support independent learning - encourage individuals with their own independent learning and provide ways to share and report on their activity back in the workplace - as well as help to build the modern learning skills required for continuous learning and personal upskilling.

If you are looking for some advice and support on how to modernize your organisation's approach to workplace learning, then we have got a growing number of opportunities on offer. This includes a series of Summer Online Workshops as follows:
